Sarge
ADOPTED 09/10/2018!
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Hi friends, my name is Sarge and I am interviewing prosepctive forever families. Let me explain my situation and get you up to speed. I managed to get myself in quite a pickle as I landed myself in local shelter as a stray. I am not really sure what a stray is but I will figure that out later. The accommodations were not bad. They were really nice to me and I did get a warm bed and two squares a day! It was kind of rough though because I was use to em... certain luxeries. I was at this place for about a month when they told me my foster family was coming to pick me up and bring me home! They are amazing and I am really living it up here wth them but foster mean temporary until my perfect home presents itself. They told me I can stay as long as I need to which makes me so happy. I even heard them say they were taking me to acupuncture this weekend so I am hoping that is some sort of massage and they provide treats! I will update later on how that goes.. So dont worry, I am in a good place as I interview
So back to my requirements.. you know a senior gentleman has certain needs and things we become accustomed to. I like a soft orthopedic bed with a blanky, I demand regular head and belly scratches, and daily treats. And let's be clear, I DONT enjoy steps and can only get up or down one or two steps because I sustained a bad pelvic injury in my younger days that never healed correctly so I only get around on three legs. My back leg is pretty useless although it does help to steady me when begging at the table... I have learned to compensate for my injury and do still enjoy playing and romping in the yard. My new family will need to provide some pain meds and supplements to help keep me as pain free as possible. Here is a positive.. I am totally house broken but do require to be let out every few hours as in my old age I just can't hold it as long as when I was a young buck.. My favorite past time aside from eating is sleeping because don't forget I am a senior boy and require several naps.. I am the most laid back guy that you will ever meet! I like my doggie friends big and small! I am just an all around great companion and just want a person to call my own. I will follow you around and lay at your feet! If you feel you could be my forever family and provide for my senior needs please apply above! Love Sarge
Thor
ADOPTED 09/09/2018!
Good With Kids: Older Kids Only
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Thor's human dad took ill and can no longer care for him. Thor has had some turmoil in his life and will need time to adjust to the changes in his life. He lived with teenagers in his temporary home before being surrendered to us. Stability, structure and training will help him tremendously, this also helps build a bond between the dog and family. At only 2 years old he does have lots of energy, lots of mental and physical exercise will help burn that young dog energy.
Updates:Thor is an incredible pup who really just needs a firm guiding hand to become the wonderful companion he was meant to be. Thor is looking for a human who will train and groom him and he'll return it with forever loyalty. Thor is wonderful and will make someone a loyal companion. Will that be you?

Autumn cannot be any cuter and is absolutely a great little girl, happy go lucky and loves to give puppy kisses. Autumn has a lot to learn about going a good canine citizen and will require training. Please remember that puppies are a lot of work and require a lot of attention from their family - puppies are a ten to twelve year commitment. Puppies are full of energy and can be mischievous – they will whine, have accidents, get into things, and chew on inappropriate things. With time, patience, guidance and training, Autumn will become even more of an amazing girl than she already is. Please inquire if Autumn sounds like a good match for your family.
Updates:Autumn is a loving, fiesty, high energy puppy. She's getting along great with her foster brothers and sister. She enjoys squeaky toys, kongs, nylabones, tennis shoe inserts, tennis shoe strings, charging cords - did we mention she was a puppy? She is learning "no" quickly, sits nicely for treats and settles after minimal protest in the crate for the night. With the proper training that every dog needs, she's going to make someone a wonderful companion!
Autumn is doing well learning the manners she had not been taught during her rough start to life. Autumn sits for treats and also before she is fed. She settles in her crate for some quiet time and at night for bed. She loves toys of any kind, including balls, stuffed toys, nylabones - and still has a love of shoes, but now knows 'leave it' so drops them when told. Autumn gets along well with her foster brothers and sister, as long as they're ready to play! Autumn is feisty and appears to want to be the dominant one. Autumn's fosters are still working on the no teeth rule with her, as she gets pretty excited getting out of her crate. Ask to meet Autumn and you won't be disappointed.
Luna
ADOPTED 09/05/2018!
Good With Kids: Yes
I've been adopted, thanks to MAGSR but so many more dogs need their help. Will you help them by donating or volunteering?
Luna along with other family members were dumped at shelter. Not often we are happy when dogs are dumped at shelters, but in this families case they are lucky they were. The family of Shepherds lived outside, no vet care, no vaccines, no preventatives. They were all crawling with fleas and ticks. When Luna arrived we noticed she has lazy eyes and was uncoordinated, along with a lump on her head. The vet did a thorough exam, Luna's eye sight seems fine, but the vet feels that she may have suffered from head trauma which caused the lump and the unsteadiness. She may or may not improve with time. With all of that aside she is a beautiful, playful and curious puppy. She deserves a special family who sees the beauty she is. Please be prepared for a puppy as they are time consuming, they need training, socialization, lots of exercise and a lifetime of love and care. Yes, puppies chew things they shouldn't, they get into things, they have potty accidents and they have lots of energy.
Updates:Luna is doing very well in her foster home. Luna pounces everywhere and loves to play with her foster brother and gets along well with the other resident dogs as well, who are all much bigger than she is. Luna's foster parents are teaching her how to do steps in the home and she's working hard to master them. Luna is food motivated, incredibly affectionate and loves everyone - she loves to snuggle and give licks and kisses. If Luna sounds like a good fit for your family, please ask to meet this sweet girl.
Astro
ADOPTED 09/03/2018!
Good With Kids: Yes

Astro came to us an owner surrender. This is a perfect example why you do not get a child a dog and expect them to be the caregiver. The child, after 3 weeks no longer was interested in caring for him, even though he promised he would. The parent did not have time, nor the knowledge to care for a GSD puppy. Astro did not have training and was doing your typical puppy behaviors...chewing, jumping, nipping. Without structure, guidance and training to teach good manners his puppy behaviors continued as no one taught him otherwise. Astro is now in the care of a loving foster learning acceptable behaviors, good manners, getting lots of exercise and structure. Astro is a sweet boy, he will need a family to continue to provide him with training and structure, along with positive reinforcement.
